How to Use the Export GL Accounts Utility

1.	In entrée.QB use menu path: File > GL Accounts > Export

2.	When the Export GL Accounts utility is first opened, you will be prompted to select the entrée GL account file (GLACNTxx) that you wish to export into QuickBooks.

As part of the export process, all accounts that are exported are automatically imported for use in entrée as part of the process, so you will not need to run an import operation after exporting accounts.

3.	Navigate to the directory that contains the entrée GL account file,

4.	Click Open.

5.	entrée.QB will then start loading the GL accounts into the account grid.

•This process may take a little time, so a progress indicator will be displayed in the lower left corner of the entrée.QB application window.

If you select the wrong file or wish to start over click the Refresh button to reopen the "Select GL Account file to export dialog.
